2022-2023 End of Year Report
Background
Teaching Lab collects a variety of data to understand the impact of its PL for educators and students. Please see this resource for a visual overview of our evaluation framework. Additionally, the narrative of our evaluation plan provides more details.
To date (Jun 19, 2023), Teaching Lab has collected the following data during SY22-23:
- 4 complete responses to the End of Session Survey section of the survey that gathers participant feedback on facilitation from session to session;
- 1 complete responses to the End of Coaching section of the survey that gathers participant feedback on each Coaching performance;
- 2 complete responses to the first Knowledge or Self-Reported Practices Assessments and 0 to the second Knowledge or Self-Reported Practices Assessments;
- 3 complete responses to the Baseline Diagnostic Educator Survey that collects information on teachers’ use of curricula, mindsets, self-reported practices, and school environment & 0 responses to the Follow-up Educator Survey.
Below we have compiled the results in various sections: Participant Background and Demographics Summary, Participant Perceptions, Participant Knowledge, Teachers’ Mindsets & School Environment and School Leaders’ Mindsets & Observational Practices.

Section 3: Participant Knowledge/Self-Reported Practices Assessments
For most PL courses, Teaching Lab administers a pre- and post- content knowledge or self-reported practice assessment. Below the pre and post averages are visualized by assessment.
Section 4: School Leaders’ Mindsets & Observational Practices
Participants complete Teaching Lab’s Educator Survey twice a year: at the beginning and end of their participation in PL. The survey collects data on school leaders’ mindsets and self-reported observational practices.
Section 4a: School Leaders - Mindsets
School leaders responded to several items about mindsets, related to recognizing race and culture, the need for remediation, high expectations for all students, and growth mindsets on a 5-point Likert scale. Composite measures were created for each construct by reverse coding some items and then averaging responses across items. In this way, higher scores correspond to holding equitable mindsets.
Overall
Recognition of Race & Culture
High Expectations
Growth Mindsets
Section 4b: School Leaders - Observational Practices
School leaders responded to items about the focus of their observational practices.
